Domestic Violence: Amazing Amazon Initiative Presents ‘Lagos And The Woman’ Conference

The spate of domestic violence reported (as thousands would go unreported) since the beginning of the year has been alarming. There has been a prevalence of spousal abuse and violence resulting in some women being badly maimed while others lost their lives. Everyday we wake up to terrifying headlines that leaves you not only gob smacked but completely distraught and agitated.

The conference is themed “LAGOS AND THE WOMAN”. In Partnership with the Lagos State Ministry Of Women Affairs, the programme will educate women on the provisions of the law in Lagos State for the victim of domestic violence and sexual abuse.
“We would also hear from women who are survivors of domestic abuse and how they rose above their situation'” said Mercy Makinde, founder of Amazing Amazon Initiative and the convener of the conference.
“Other issues affecting women who are resident in Lagos that would make them well-rounded individuals, help them live a fulfilled life and compete favorably with their contemporaries in other parts of the world would also be discussed,” Makinde added.
The Commissioner of Women Affairs Lagos State, Honorable Lola Akande will be delivering the Keynote Address. Other Speakers include Nigeria’s foremost advocate against domestic violence, Mrs. Josephine Effah of Project Alert, Mrs Ini Onuk, the Founder/Group CEO, Thistle Group – a leadership, change management, projects and innovations management icon.
